McCain's Athleticism on Display

Alan Burge, Texans beat writer, comments on the athleticism of second year cornerback, Brice McCain, in today's entry on examiner.com. Says Burge, "One thing I've noticed about Brice McCain during drills is that he has a really good vertical leap. That's part of his game, being able to get up and fight for balls against taller receivers. At 5-9 McCain is looking up to virtually every receiver in the league but remember Steve Jackson of the Oilers? He was basically the same height as McCain and he turned out to be a pretty good corner." McCain is battling for a starting cornerback position for the Texans.
